Will the Toro I recently smoked change my mind?

This cigar has a particularly oily reddish wrapper that is very firm to the touch. It looks good enough…

The pre-light draw is nice and easy. After I light it, I am enveloped in a cloud of smoke. The cigar yields a nice big ash. I love a nice big ash. Plus the burn is dead even. So the construction seems good enough…

Here’s were I’ve been tripped up before, flavor and taste. This Toro tastes leathery and woody. There is also an undercurrent of earth throughout. But there is sourness on the finish I just can’t get past. Normally I would give the cigar the benefit of the doubt and chock it up to youth. But after trying this cigar several times, I think it’s just in the blend and not a youth issue.

So in summary, the cigar looks great and is rolled well, I just can’t really get into the flavor of these cigars. The Signatures are very popular cigars though, so I know a lot of people like them, just not me.

The Torano lines never really excites me… Kind of like the Alec Bradley stuff…. I have a Torano in my box, that I just keep pushing aside…. Not sure why.. Might need to fire it up soon… Thanks for the reviewski….

Jake, for the sake of everyone that is near you when you smoke a Torano I’m defintiely glad they don’t “flip your skirt”! haha

But ya, I see where you’re coming from, just missing that little something to set them a step above the rest. Let us know your thoughts when you get a chance to try one! I’m curious to see if you think it’s one of the better Torano’s you’ve tried. And keep your skirt down at all times please and thanks!

Now you’ve made me want to seek out one or two next time I’m in town and get a chance to visit the B&M. I’m kind of the same way with most of the Torano lines. It’s not that they’re bad by any means, they just don’t seem to flip my skirt. Like they’re missing something, maybe?

My pleasure, man! I actually meant to say that I like the robusto “a little more”. Don’t want to give the impression that I don’t like the toro. 😉

Thanks again for sending this one along Jeff. And I agree, the prices you can find on them when they are on sale make them worth the cost for sure.

Coffee Porter is a must to keep around! lol

Thanks Dan. The brewery is pretty small so it seems pretty hard to find it in stores. If you’re ever up in the Muskoka area you could always pass by.
And good point on the Brazilian Maduro, now that you mentioned it the vast majority of them do seem to be pretty rugged. I’m sure there are exceptions to that rule but it’s an interesting point.

I actually like the robusto vitola, as it seems to deliver more consistent and concentrated flavor. I agree with you on the price, but they pop up on Cigar Monster on occasion for a really good price. I haven’t had any of Torano’s new releases, but I think the Exodus 59 Years and the Master are great cigars.

Sounds like a great pairing. I’ll have to track down some coffee porter to keep around.
